Thanks! If you can cut paper you are fine. I would only backlap if you were failing a paper cut test (with proper bedknife clearance) and if you had a relief grind done on your reel. My grinder does a spin grind only so I don't personally backlap.
I tried replacing the bulb with an LED bulb. For some reason mine did not work. I plan to replace the light just like you but will use wago connectors. Thanks for the tip! Also, would you mind doing a video about how to add a kick stand ? Mine did not come with one.
Give it a shot, I bet you will love it! I believe the kick stand just bolts onto the rear of the frame. I can try to send you some picture or something if you would like.
Thanks for the content! My JD didn't come with a headlight kit. Does it look like it would be a simple bolt-on install? I agree the LED looks much better too.
I no longer have my JDs so I am not sure. Were they using this exact same light? I never had an issue but I don't think I owned it for 8 months after the install.
The number of times a homeowner is going to mow a lawn after dark is likely to be so small that it makes me think the lights on these greensmowers are sort of pointless for residential use. How many times do you actually mow in the dark before the neighbors complain?
I don't personally mow in the dark but I know several guys that get home later in the day from work and can't finish before sundown. I'm sure there's others out there that like early mornings as well. The engines are honda gx120 and if properly running they aren't very loud. Plus, this light just looks way better 😎
It’s been a while, since your last video. Very good upgrade light. It is definitely brighter, great install.
It has been a while! Appreciate it brother, I am really loving it so far!
New Light made a huge difference. I would like to add that to my Allett lol.
😂 thanks Striperman I am very happy with it so far and you should totally do it hahaha!
Nice video once again…. Can a reel that cuts paper require a backlap at the same time? What are the signs that a backlap is required?

@@BermudaBoss I just replaced mine. It looks great! How can I provide my email to you so you can send me the pictures of the kick stand?
@@PartOfTheExperience awesome man! Shoot me an email bermudagrassboss@gmail.com. I am at work now but will check it soon...

Hey! Does yours have the setup/wiring for a light or nothing at all?
Can we get an update on how the mod is holding up. Ive heard a couple people say their light stopped working after 6-8 months.👍🏾

Thanks man! Yeah I really like it so far, plus it just looks way more ba 😂

Did this mod ever cause you any trouble?
Nope
